The Met Cancels 2020-21 Opera Season, Announces Premieres for 2021-22

The Metropolitan Opera announced today that the ongoing health crisis has resulted in the cancellation of the entire 2020-21 season, but the company also announced ambitious artistic plans for its 2021-22 season, which will open with the Met premiere of Terence Blanchard's Fire Shut Up in My Bones. Blanchard's opera is the first by an African American composer to be performed at the Met.

The Met made its painful decision to cancel the balance of the 2020-21 season based on the advice of health officials who advise the Met and Lincoln Center. Because of the many hundreds of performers who are required to rehearse and perform in close quarters and because of the company's large audience, it was determined that it would not be safe for the Met to resume until a vaccine is widely in use, herd immunity is established, and the wearing of masks and social distancing is no longer a medical requirement. Health officials have said this will likely take at least five to six months after a vaccine is initially made available.

"The inability to perform is taking a tremendous toll on our company," said the Met's General Manager, Peter Gelb. "Our future relies on making strong artistic strides, while collectively reducing our costs until the audience has fully returned," he continued, citing audience surveys that indicate it will take time before the Met's box office returns to pre-pandemic levels. "But we have faith that the members of our company and the public will understand why and how our return to normalcy must be managed. Meanwhile, we will continue with all of our digital media initiatives, which have kept the Met connected with our audiences here and abroad throughout the closure."

As part of the Met's efforts to make opera more equitable, the company has named three Black composers-Valerie Coleman, Jessie Montgomery, and Joel Thompson-to the Metropolitan Opera / Lincoln Center Theater New Works commissioning program, while also announcing the commission of the noted African American visual artist Rashid Johnson to create large-scale artworks that will be on display inside the opera house during the 2021-22 season.

Gelb also explained several other plans meant to be responsive to an audience that will at least initially be more cautious, including a large number of earlier 7PM curtain times, as well as several operas with reduced running times. As examples, Gelb said, "We will be presenting Boris Godunov in its original two-and-a-quarter-hour version without intermission, making cuts in the Baroque opera Rodelinda, and removing the intermission between Acts II and III in Madama Butterfly. We'll also be presenting a 90-minute English-language version of Cinderella, an adaptation of Massenet's Cendrillon, as a holiday entertainment for families."

"It is devastating to have to cancel the 2020-21 season, which we were all so looking forward to," said Yannick Nézet-Séguin, the Met's Jeanette Lerman-Neubauer Music Director. "But I am extremely excited about the plans for 2021-22 and cannot wait for the chance to reunite with the great Met Orchestra and Chorus, which will be showing new sides of their extraordinary artistry. To be on the podium for the Opening Night premiere of Fire Shut Up in My Bones is sure to be an absolute thrill, and I'm very pleased that our programming will be more responsive to the important social changes that are taking place. I'm happy too that five distinguished conductors-Jane Glover, Karen Kamensek, Susanna Mälkki, and, in their company debuts, Eun Sun Kim and Nathalie Stutzmann-will all perform at the Met in 2021-22, the most women on the podium in a single season in Met history."

The 2021-22 season will open with the Met premiere of Terence Blanchard's Fire Shut Up in My Bones, with a libretto by Kasi Lemmons, based on the memoir by Charles M. Blow. The opera will be conducted by Maestro Nézet-Séguin and will star Angel Blue, Latonia Moore, and Will Liverman. The opera is one of three contemporary works to have premieres in 2021-22, the greatest number of new operas to premiere in a single Met season since 1928-29. The other new works are Matthew Aucoin's Eurydice, set to a libretto by Sarah Ruhl, also conducted by Maestro Nézet-Séguin and starring Erin Morley in the title role, and Brett Dean's Hamlet, with a libretto by Matthew Jocelyn and with Allan Clayton as the tortured Dane. The season also features new productions of Verdi's Rigoletto, starring Rosa Feola, Piotr Beczała, and Quinn Kelsey, and Donizetti's Lucia di Lammermoor, with Nadine Sierra in the title role, opposite Javier Camarena. The Met premiere of the original five-act, French-language version of Verdi's Don Carlos will also have Nézet-Séguin on the podium leading an all-star cast: Sonya Yoncheva, Elīna Garanča, Matthew Polenzani, Etienne Dupuis, Günther Groissböck, and John Relyea.

Fire Shut Up in My Bones will be co-directed by James Robinson and Camille A. Brown, building on their collaboration with The Gershwins' Porgy and Bess in the 2019-20 season. Brown becomes the first Black director in Met history to create a mainstage production; she is also the production's choreographer.

Three new productions come from returning directors: Mary Zimmerman will direct the Met premiere of Eurydice, Bartlett Sher will direct the new Rigoletto, and Sir David McVicar is back for Don Carlos. Lucia di Lammermoor will see the highly anticipated Met debut of director Simon Stone. Neil Armfield also debuts, bringing to the Met his acclaimed Glyndebourne Festival production of Dean's Hamlet.

In addition to these new productions, the Met will offer an abridged, English-language holiday presentation of Cinderella, an adaptation of Laurent Pelly's witty 2018 production of Massenet's Cendrillon, with a new translation by Kelley Rourke.

Sixteen revivals (detailed below) round out the season, which also features a concert by Anna Netrebko and the Met Orchestra, conducted by Maestro Nézet-Séguin, and a solo recital by soprano Sonya Yoncheva.

In advance of the season opening, the Met is planning a performance of the Verdi Requiem to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the September 11 attacks. Maestro Nézet-Séguin will conduct, and soloists include Ailyn Pérez, Matthew Polenzani, and Eric Owens. Additional casting will be announced at a later date.

The new productions that were to have premiered during the now-canceled 2020-21 season-Verdi's Aida, Prokofiev's The Fiery Angel, Mozart's Die Zauberflöte and Don Giovanni, and Jake Heggie's Dead Man Walking-will all be rescheduled for future seasons.

The Met Orchestra's three concerts at Carnegie Hall scheduled for June 2021 have all been canceled, though the series will return in the 2021-22 season, with dates to be announced later. The Met Orchestra's international tour, also planned for June 2021, has been canceled as well.

René Pape reprises his acclaimed portrayal of Boris, under the baton of Sebastian Weigle. In a nod to audiences' desire for shorter running times in the midst of the health crisis, the Met will present the original 1869 version, which runs two-and-a-quarter hours and will have no intermission.

Education

This past summer, in response to the sudden closure of schools and performing arts organizations nationwide, the Metropolitan Opera's Education department launched its first-ever Global Summer Camp. Each week for eight weeks, campers explored an opera through hands-on lessons with award-winning educators and artists, interviews with world-famous opera stars and directors, and a free stream of the opera. The Met's Global Summer Camp boasted more than 3,400 registrants, aged 8-18, from nearly 70 countries.

In light of the exceptional success of the Global Summer Camp and Free Student Streams, Met Education is expanding both the content and reach of the HD Live in Schools program for the 2020-21 season, despite the closure.

Starting in the fall of 2020, Met Education will provide access to Met Opera on Demand for all HD Live in Schools district partnerships, which now includes 55 districts in 42 states.

As always, participation in HD Live in Schools will come with free access to the Met's Educator Guides and the annual National Teachers Conference, which this year will be hosted on a virtual platform.

The Metropolitan Opera / Lincoln Center Theater New Works Program

The Met's commissioning program with Lincoln Center Theater continues with three African American composers joining the program roster. Valerie Coleman is a composer, flutist, a founding member of the highly regarded Imani Winds (a chamber wind ensemble whose members are all people of color). Jessie Montgomery is a Juilliard-trained violinist and a sought-after soloist and chamber musician, who was selected by the New York Philharmonic as one of the featured composers for their Project 19, which marks the centennial of the ratification of the 19th Amendment, granting equal voting rights in the United States to women. Joel Thompson, who composed the choral/orchestral piece "Seven Last Words of the Unarmed" (which was the subject of a New York Times profile) was also recently commissioned by Houston Grand Opera to write an opera, The Snowy Day, based on the classic children's book about a Black child's winter adventures.

Joshua Schmidt continues work on Fallingwater, with a libretto by Dick Scanlan, about the creation of the iconic house designed by Frank Lloyd Wright.

David T. Little is working on a soon-to-be-announced project in collaboration with librettist Royce Vavrek.

National Council Auditions

With the cancellation of the 2020-21 season, the National Council Auditions Grand Finals Concert on May 16, 2021, has also been canceled. However, the regional auditions will continue. The auditions will begin with a pre-screening round consisting of one to two arias pre-recorded on video. The next two rounds of the competition will be held via livestream video. We will be announcing alternative arrangements for the finals in the coming months.

Gallery Met

The company's contemporary art initiative will continue in 2021-22 with a new commission from acclaimed artist Rashid Johnson, whose mixed-media work explores the Black experience. His pair of monumental works will be on view on the Grand Tier and Dress Circle levels of the opera house, where Cecily Brown's pieces have been on display.

Engaging with Audiences during the Closure

When the Met was forced to close its doors in March, the company right away began streaming encore presentations from its vast collection of Live in HD transmissions and classic telecasts, all for free on the Met's website. To date, the Nightly Met Opera Streams series has presented 27 weeks' worth of free performances, with more than 14.4 million total views. The free streams will continue while the opera house remains dark.

On April 25, 2020, the Met further connected with its audience with the groundbreaking At-Home Gala, which featured dozens of opera's greatest artists performing live from their home quarantines around the world via Skype.

In the summer of 2020, the Met's Education department launched Global Summer Camp, an eight-week program of daily activities that reached thousands of students around the world.

On July 18, 2020, the company launched Met Stars Live in Concert, a new pay-per-view series of live-streamed performances featuring some of opera's leading artists in notable locations around the world. So far, the series has featured performances by Jonas Kaufmann, Renée Fleming, Roberto Alagna and Aleksandra Kurzak, Lise Davidsen, and Joyce DiDonato.
